Volunteer Interest Form

Community Foundation for the CSRA Community Grants Panel Volunteer Interest Form

Thank you for your interest in volunteering with the Community Foundation! Each year, community members like you help us review and evaluate grant applications through our Community Grants Program. By completing this short form, you’ll help us learn more about your interests, background, and availability so we can match you with the right grants panel when the time comes. The information you share also allows us to keep you informed about volunteer opportunities, events, and community impact stories throughout the year.
Your Name(Required)
Your Email Address(Required)
Have you served on a Community Grants Panel before?(Required)
Volunteer Role Preference(Required)
If selected to serve as a Community Grants volunteer, which role would you be most interested in?
Please share any professional, volunteer, educational, or lived experience you would like us to consider when forming review panels. You are also welcome to tell us about your interests in learning more about community needs and local nonprofits. This information helps us build panels with diverse perspectives and experiences but is not required to serve as a volunteer reviewer.
Community Issues of Interest
Please select the areas that most interest you. While we will consider your preferences when assigning volunteers to panels, we cannot guarantee placement within a specific category or area of interest.
Volunteer Time Commitment Acknowledgment
I understand that serving as a Community Grants volunteer requires time to review and score approximately five grant applications, participate in panel discussions, and attend site visits during the month of October. I understand that site visits are coordinated between the volunteer panel and its assigned nonprofit organizations and may require scheduling flexibility and travel within the CSRA during regular business hours.
How did you hear about our Volunteer Opportunities?(Required)

In addition to serving as a grant reviewer, please let us know if you would be interested in sharing your expertise with nonprofit organizations through future trainings, workshops, panels, mentoring opportunities, or educational resources. If yes, please describe any areas of expertise you would be willing to share. Examples may include: • Board Governance & Leadership • Strategic Planning • Finance, Budgeting & Accounting • Human Resources & Talent Management • Marketing, Communications & Storytelling • Fundraising & Development • Grant Writing & Grant Management • Program Evaluation & Outcomes Measurement • Legal & Risk Management • Technology & Cybersecurity • Volunteer Management • Community Partnerships & Collaboration • Workforce Development & Career Readiness • Diversity, Equity, Accessibility & Inclusion • Other specialized knowledge or professional expertise
